A young angler went out fishing on Sunday 13th jan 2019!

He along with 439 other fishing enthusiasts were fishing the amble open all with the aim of winning the big prize infact any prize.

Damian picked his spot at howick.

Sadly he was hit by a wave and forced into the water.

rescue services were able to get him out of the sea and airlifted to Cramlington hospital.

Despite there very best efforts this young father and dedicated community member just couldn’t make it back to our village!

Can I say he was a quiet family man who doted on his partner and his child.

Damian aged just 24 adored the simple things in life wanted for nothing but gave up what time he did have to help the elderly in there gardens. He worked in our local co op in Widdrington Station. Always polite and a well known a respected member of our small community.

His family have been left broken hearted as have members of our community.

He lived for his family his long time partner and his daughter. Damian was the provider and protector of the home. His partner who's is also so young has been left broken hearted but having to try and keep together to guide and support her young daughter through this tragic loss.

we’ve lost a massive heart in all and for all he did for many.

Damian’s family will be proud to know he was who he was and never forgotten!

times are hard for each and every one of us !

Just try being Damian’s family in this moment of tragic loss . 🙏
